So uh, any chances that they drop the requirement to have Farthings in order to get Crystal Sand? They aren't obtainable anymore but Catalysts are, and it seems really rude to just taunt people like this.

Crafter scrips are way easier and faster to do and I doubt they'll change the steps any more.
Also moonstones, if you don't have any crafters.
"The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater."
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
It is mostly for people who still keep those legacy currencies for some reasons, in case they want to spend.
From the market, you can buy items dropped from Primals and exchange them for Crystal sand. It is what I did. They are relatively cheap. I think that's the fastest way if you don't have the Disciples of the Hand job unlocked.
Oh that's why I never got any mhachi farthings. I just assumed I missed a Void Ark/Dun Scaith/Dun Scaith drop that I needed to grind for.
I mean I get that, but my issue is that the Catalysts are still obtainable but the farthings aren't. With no way to get Farthings the Catalysts are functionally useless as well. If you are going to remove an item from the game you should change instances that require that item as well. With Tomestone gear they gave us the option to augment for 100 poetics, for consistency sake I would like it so I can turn in just Catalysts for the sand or something along those lines, IDK.
Catalysts are used in crafting recipes for the wootx weapons at the least.

They weren't just a thing to turn in for sands.
Best item for that I'd say is Amber Encased Vilekins. Just gotta be willing to spend most, if not all, of your levequest allowances...
